Govdex upgrade

nerdErg recently completed the upgrade of Govdex, an Atlassian Confluence, Jira, and Crowd installation that serves around 60k+ users in Government in Australia. The upgrade went off with little disruption thanks to the extensive preparation by the team, although we did have to track down and fix a tricky problem with Crowd which caused excessive load on the first day.

Congratulations to the whole team at Dept. of Finance, good job!

Good Form 1.0.3 released

Good Form 1.0.3, a bug fix release went out after the we presented to gr8conf last month. It contains a couple of bug fixes and improvements, namely:

Add a generic field errors message to the top of the form page to indicate that there are errors below.

Add a div with class qsetDisplay to the form question set displayed on answered questions and set the default display to none.

Put a div around the form version message so it can be hidden.

Fix #16 check for arrays and lists to display the listOf element

Fix #17 remove th index for the each form element as the fields are individually named

If you have any issues with Good Form feel free to add an issue to the GitHub repo.

What is nerdErg about?

nerdErg is about making your life easier. In short these statements sum up what we reckon:

Things should work like we humans want to work.

People have brains, so software should not be dumbed down or complexed up.

It should just bloody work, no really, I want it to just bloody work!

Call it as it is. No one is perfect, and conditions, thoughts, fashion change, that's good, let it be.
